Their privacy policy looked very different at the time Lin was allegedly using it:
> We Do Not monitor user activity nor do we keep any logs. We therefore have no record of your activities such as which software you used, which websites you visited, what content you downloaded, which apps you used, etc. after you connected to any of our servers. Our servers automatically record the time at which you connect to any of our servers. From here on forward, we do not keep any records of anything that could associate any specific activity to a specific user. The time when a successful connection is made with our servers is counted as a “connection” and the total bandwidth used during this connection is called “bandwidth”. Connection and bandwidth are kept in record to maintain the quality of our service. This helps us understand the flow of traffic to specific servers so we could optimize them better.
They appear to have made the policy (and presumably connection logging) change in June 2018. For reference, Lin pleaded guilty to charges related to the criminal complaint posted by OP in April 2018. I would imagine PureVPN's lawyers had advised them to wait until the case had ended before enacting the new policy.
